OR Sibyl...which is apparently a less commonly used name (although it looks a bit odd to me).

Thoughts?

I knew an inspirational Sybil, so it is yes from me.

I think I like Cecil a bit more

Ha ha. No.

I like it.
My first thought was Fawlty Towers though

I don't know--it just doesn't have a very nice sound to me. "Sibble."

I mean this in the BEST way - my grandma was called Sybil (actually, it was spelt Sibyl as my great-grandad spelt it "wrong" on her birth certificate!) - she was an amazing lady and I would call my non-existent DD this name in a heartbeat. Envy

Sybil. I adore this name. Sybil Buck was one of the coolest models ever. Always had this name on my list.
